Summary

The Meraner Höhenweg (Merano High Mountain Trail) is a mountain hiking trail in South Tyrol, marked with the number 24. It circles the Texelgruppe mountain massif—part of the Texelgruppe Nature Park—on its slopes and offers views of the valley basin of the city of Merano, the Etschtal and Vinschgau valleys, and the Passeier and Schnalstal valleys.

The circular trail consists of a northern section, which leads from the Schnalstal valley to Passeier, and a longer southern section from Passeier to the Schnalstal valley. The northern section requires fitness for high-alpine tours, while the southern section can also be managed by less experienced hikers. (Source: Wikipedia)
